WWE Raw: 5 Things we learned from this week’s episode (31 December 2018)

#3 Apollo Crews is energetic and deserves a push

Apollo Crews has been doing fairly well since parting ways with Titus Worldwide. The super-athlete has been given some important spots by the creatives to ensure fans don't lose interest in him.

This week was probably one of the highlights of his career as he managed to win a battle royal to determine the number one contender for Dean Ambrose's Intercontinental Championship.

The match for the championship which took place a little over an hour after he won the battle royal wasn't too bad, and Crews was not jobbed out in the process as he put up a fair fight.

These spots will help Crews get further in his career and we could actually see him getting pushed even more into a title reign sometime in the future.

A man of his strength, athleticism, and abilities deserves mid-card matches every week and a push going forward.
